I worked in OZ for 6 months. Best thing I've done in my life! Worked in Melbourne and Brisbane, got a list of companies that are cool if you need them. Seriously so awesome there. Gonna live there one day.

Would make a beautiful table or desk -
Erm no experience in carpentry at all I'm just a tree monkey! My father in law is a very skilful carpenter (45 years exp) so as you can imagine I have access to lots of tools. Yeah any advice is appreciated
-
Very good point. In the mean time I'm going to work on other projects. Might make a butchers block and some coasters. Just need so,e ideas of things I can work on. Bear in mind I can get majority of wood and size
-
What did you use to finish that?
-
That's either a small coffe table... Or bloody monster dogs
-
As some of you know I'm working on a very large oak ring trying to make it into... 'Something' anyway. I literally am a total newbie and wanted some ideas on what I could make? Nice and simple
-
I have loads of sycamore, ash, robina etc any size you want really. J28 m25

Although it will probably float away overnight
-
I'll give it a go mate I have a running river in my back garden!
-
Lovely advice mate, I think I will clear gloss it, perhaps make a table. I'm engraving it first! I've found a real love for wood craft that I didn't know I had!
-
Thanks for your help dude
-
Hello Simon, That's some great advice I think I'm going to pin the bark and some ply to the base to hold shape drill the hole in the middle. Then I'm going to wet sand to a very very fine grit then let it dry and varnish or gloss it. What do you think?
-
This is some great advice mate and your previous post. Thank you very much. Will be posting the finished piece soon I imagine!
-
Hey PM me we will talk about it
-
Very very helpful, thank you
-
Father in law is a carpenter so maybe a very thick wooden frame drilled into the back might give it a chance?
-
That's a good idea mate or even just a nice even well placed hole couldn't look to bad I guess lol
